Male Gaze

Alex Gaudino - Destination Unknown

Throughout this video there are scenes associated with intimacy and sex.



Within the first five seconds we see a woman licking her lips like she is teasing a man and drawing them in. This will give the males watching a visual pleasure.

Within the next few seconds we see see a whole body shot of a woman which is wearing a minimal amount of clothing with a short skirt where you can see there body. Also the costumes they are wearing can be a fantasy for men and can link this with being sexy.


The next shot is a close up of her chest as she starts to take her jacket off and you see cleavage. She is beginning to strip and become more revealing to the audience. The women is now seen as a object as mainly there role in videos/ films are to look good and are passive as they are the people being watched.

About 45 seconds in the woman starts to lick the trumpet and makes that object erotic as it can be seen as an sexual innuendo. Also the woman is seen as a erotic object too as the men in the audience will like to watch this because the woman is good looking.


Next there is a group of women that are laying on the floor in a seductive way and draws the audience in making the women all passive as they are the things being looked at but also they are erotic objects too because men to fantasise about women like this sometimes.




Very shortly after the women are staggering around like they are drunk and some men find it easier to have an intimate moment with them as they do not know fully what they are doing and this is once again making the male audience feel dominant as the women can seem vulnerable.




Later in the video the woman is drinking some water and it is going down her body as this makes the water bottle a erotic object as she is trying to tease the men by taking her clothes off and becoming more revealing also her mouth is parted and eyes closed so it looks like she is having a sexual experience. The water can also relate to being sweat and also link to something sexual.
